Hi there, looking to get a piece of headphone for my girlfriend for her upcoming birthday. I'm looking for recommendation for some good looking headphone with good bass as she listens to a lot of kpop/rock kind of music, Prefer something in white/pink/light blue. Comfort is the first priority as she tends to listen to music for hours. Any recommendation?

It will have bad feeling for me to wear it when it press on my glasses & i will keep thinking whether it will break anot although it wont. Haha.
I am also using iem(just a normal set came with walkman set), facing quite same problem with u. The earbuds will easily drop when i accidentally touch the wire when my ears become oily. It provides me quite bad feeling that i have to keep care about it whether it will drop anot.
I think maybe i can solve this problem by using wireless iem, so that there is no wire for me to touch to make it drop, instead of wear contacts(quite trouble for me). Do u have any suggestion for me? I just hope to have good clarity, good isolation & smooth bass. Is it possible for budget around RM500?

no such thing la, still have to use battery, if not how to power the earphone? can use la but no sound from earphone playing

Oh, i just knew about the system of wireless, thx for ur info.
Then do you have better suggestions on maybe their quality near like ath m50?

u cant compare sound quality from headphones and earphones la,

its like comparing a ferrari and lambo as they dun have same engine

Thank you very much, learned much thing from you.

Cannot find HiFi Man reseller at Garage sales. Still leaning more to Se215 due to the comfort. Would like to try Beyer X3 at Jaben some day

the entry level AKG for EDM is the Tiesto K67 which is an onear at twice your budget The overears Tiesto K167 is four times your budget

you may want to consider the K518LE which is just over your budget, good for EDM but it is an onear as well

Shure SE215 within RM300

For similar performance to the SE215 at an affordable price, do consider the SoundMAGIC PL50 as well
